Hi!
I've seen that in Fedora you only have to plug in a printer
and it usually gets recognized and work, You just have to
install these packages:
sudo yum -y install hplip hplip-common
and if you have a HP scanner:
sudo yum -y install libsane-hpaio
It has been working for me like that since
F13 with two or three HP printers and All in Ones
But now I tried it in F14 with a HP Laserjet 5P
and it doesn't work, System does not recognize printer
when I plug it in the USB port (it's a Parallell to USB connection)
I already tried installing HPLiP from the HP binary
and it gave me a GUI, but the printer is still not getting
recognized, it's like I never plug it to the PC.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks!
